[DIRTYSECRET]

Throwing good money after bad.

1980’s-remember when Israel took out Saddam’s nuclear reactor? Didn’t rebuild.
Some have to learn the hard way-gets expensive.

[PGalt]

U.S.A.: Hard-working American taxpayer dollars WASTED. CONgre$$?

[Ezekiel]

That’s a shame.

[sasquatch]

Soon to become an artificial reef. Then described as a complete success.

[wildcard_redneck]

And Zeepers think that Biden and his insane clown posse will win I the Ukraine.

[Leep]

Gaza: SOS. Out of Skittles!

[Rightwing Conspiratr1]

The purpose of this sort of pier is to supply a beach head.
We do not control the beach head.
It’s a total misuse and danger to our forces.
WE have idiots in command.

[Ciaphas Cain]

The Allied Expeditionary Forces created entire freakin' artificial harbors to unload their equipment from at Normandy.

Eighty years later much of the Mulberry infrastructure is still there to be seen.

Meanwhile modern American engineering cannot emplace a simple pier without it self-destructing practically overnight.

[ClearCase_guy]

Temporary pier is more temporary than intended.

[tennmountainman]

Biden, Loyd Austin are idiots.
They are a dangerous joke.

[Harpotoo]

Damage? God blew it off it’s mooring and then sank the overpriced pos!

[hinckley buzzard]

Perfect Biden fiasco.

[DesertRhino]

If this was done in a manner that didn’t hurt Israel, we would fly in whatever into an Israeli airport. We are supplying the enemy.

[hinckley buzzard]

Bedside which, that
“military boat” looks like an old rusty garbage scow. What ever happened to “if it doesn’t move, paint it?”

[fella]

Ammo delivery halted by an act of God?

[Uncle Miltie]

I was walking the beach of Tel Aviv during the “bad weather”. It was far less than an average day off the coast of Washington State. Pretty damned mild, if you ask me.

[Karliner]

Man makes plans, God laughs?

[MIchaelTArchangel]

It looks as if the SeaBees have become the SeeBeas.

[NWFree]

Do you know how many terrorists are hungry because of this?!
